Off Set // Off Site Dublin 2018 – How to get Hired? Moving from Student to Designer

In collaboration with Off Set and Each&Other, Design Enterprise Skillnet are running a day-long free event that will help you target the kind of job that will suit you, and give you the practical skills to go after it. There will also be designers and employers from some of the most prestigious, largest and most interesting Irish studios coming along to share their views on what makes a good portfolio and what they look for in a candidate. And there’ll be lots of time for Q&A.

There’ll be a light breakfast, lunch and some complimentary drinks to finish up.

Portfolio clinic where you can display your portfolio and get a steer from industry experts

Mixer: you can put what you’ve learned into practice and make some contacts (with some beers and wine to make it easier!)

Who will get the most from this:

Designers who have just finished college, who are finishing up a post-grad and are getting out there again, people who are in their final projects and are ready to take the next step; people who’ve done a few internships but haven’t managed to land their dream job yet.

What do you need:

If you have a portfolio bring it along. We’ll have a portfolio clinic at the end of the session for you to get feedback and a steer from our experienced designers.
